Antagonists of the system L neutral amino acid transporter (LAT) promote endothelial adhesivity of human red blood cells.
(Thrombosis and haemostasis, 2017-06)The system L neutral amino acid transporter (LAT; LAT1, LAT2, LAT3, or LAT4) has multiple functions in human biology, including the cellular import of S-nitrosothiols (SNOs), biologically active derivatives of nitric oxide ... -
Posttranslational membrane attachment and dynamic fatty acylation of a neuronal growth cone protein, GAP-43.
(The Journal of cell biology, 1989-02)Growth cones, the motile apparatus at the ends of elongating axons, are sites of extensive and dynamic membrane-cytoskeletal interaction and insertion of new membrane into the growing axon. One of the most abundant proteins ... -
Probing the folded state of fibronectin type III domains in stretched fibrils by measuring buried cysteine accessibility.
(The Journal of biological chemistry, 2011-07)Fibronectin (FN) is an extracellular matrix protein that is assembled into fibrils by cells during tissue morphogenesis and wound healing. FN matrix fibrils are highly elastic, but the mechanism of elasticity has been debated: ...
